У ВК день рождения. В прошлые годы я писал огромные простыни о том, какие ошибки допускает руководство, как можно было бы их исправить, и желал любимой соцсети всё-таки выбраться из ямы бестолкового менеджмента.
С тех пор лучше не стало, поэтому простыню я не буду писать, надоело. Одни из самых пишущих и интересных авторов среди моих знакомых уже почти все ушли по другим соцсетям (даже в отвратительнейший Фейсбук!), и это самый что ни на есть яркий сигнал, на мой взгляд.
Но приведу ещё любопытный момент. Под постом гендира ВК бОльшая часть комментариев — негативные или резко-негативные. С одной стороны, значительная часть этих комментариев про платную музыку, то есть от детей или дураков, которых можно игнорировать. С другой стороны, когда тот же Телеграм пишет новости о себе, ответы в основном положительные и хвалебные, даже восторженные. Но администрация, конечно, об этом нюансе задумываться не станет. У них там статистика про миллиард просмотров видео в день, отчёты о росте, им не до этого.

🙈 After the ban on accepting organic waste, Bali authorities faced an unexpected consequence: residents began massively burning trash right in their own yards
ℹ️ The decision to restrict organic waste intake was made to accelerate the transition to village-level waste processing systems. Now the island’s largest landfill only accepts non-organic and residual waste. The reason is critical overload: up to 65% of Bali’s waste is organic with high moisture content, leading to methane emissions, unpleasant odors, and rapid overfilling of the site.
🔥 However, in practice, the ban has triggered a wave of uncontrolled waste burning. Lacking sufficient recycling infrastructure, local residents have resorted to the simplest method of disposal – fire.

🌱 Bali’s main landfill stopped taking organic waste (April 2026) and will fully close by August
👮♀️ Police are monitoring the site, but short-term issues like illegal dumping and river pollution may increase during the transition.
🚮 Tourists: you might notice more trash in some areas – travel responsibly.

🪧Bali installs signs with rules of behavior on the island
📰 The Department of Tourism of Bali province is concerned about the number of violations of the rules of behavior on the island by tourists. Now it is intensifying the installation of information signs with infographics explaining the rules of behavior on the island – Do's and Don'ts.
📍 The plan is to install these signs at 10 key locations in Kuta, Changgu, Seminyak, Uluwatu, Tanah Lote and Bedugul where the chance of reading the rules will be high.
🤞 This is expected to reduce the number of violations so often committed by foreign tourists.
What Do's should be followed first of all?
